The night was a tough cold and difficulty sleeping, as is often due to the altitude.
But the morning really a great view of the mountains at dawn.
Actually I took advantage of the presence of a Nepalese guide who has awakened his German client who was sleeping in room next to mine and told him to get up and do not lose sight of the mountains as soon as the clouds rose from the valley and would have covered (in fact it can also happen in these parts to spend whole days in these mountains high and do not ever see them).
So I got up too, braving the cold (-22 degrees this guide said, but to me it seems a bit 'too) that I had to face so much after a while anyway,' and it is definitely worth it.
Even more important is the presence of this guide is for the path to today Tarepathi Malemchigaon for the path, all steep downhill into the woods, it was impossible to detect after the snow yesterday, with snow that reached to his knees. So I have to admit that only by following the traces left by the German and his leadership - left before me - I was able to reach the goal of today who otherwise would have been impossible and I had to stay at least one more day in the lodge Tarepathi - whose operator, however, I was also rather annoying, not to mention the cold and altitude. So, thanks to the guides and the Germans who pay them!
The descent was a kind of ecstasy are the photographs of me taken very convenient stop a thousand times, albeit briefly, enjoying the scenery and the details of the forms that trees leaves and taking in the snow and try to fix them in the photos.
down into the woods with the snow without seeing what's underneath it means to be always very careful about where and how you put your feet and often slipping. So it was a day very focused, very physical, which I left a lot to put into words.
So for now I leave room for pictures and some more in Aileu.
The trail is submerged
must dig into the snow
Like why I'm here
